In Afghanistan, women are banned from going to work without a male guardian
A new decision has been made regarding the prohibition of women going to work without a male companion in Kandahar province of Afghanistan. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to this decision, women are required to carry a "mahram card" with them. The mahram card is a special document that contains the personal information of the woman and her mahram (husband, father, brother, or son).

If a woman does not have such a card, she will be deprived of the opportunity to go to work. This new regulation is being implemented to maintain security and order in the country.

However, this measure is being evaluated differently in the legal and social systems. Some experts and citizens perceive this law as a restriction on women's rights, while others see it as necessary measures.

To obtain a mahram card, women must present numerous documents and also go through a three-day processing period. The issuance of the card requires the consent of religious authorities, security services, local councils, and employers.

The new regulation is also affecting economic and social sectors. In some families, the absence of an adult male at work may impact family expenses.

This could potentially lead to economic difficulties in some households. Therefore, it is crucial to provide accurate information and explanations to the population about the new law.

Similar laws implemented in Uzbekistan may also have an impact on social life and family relationships. However, creating the same conditions for all women and developing policies that suit them will lead to extensive discussions.

The new legislation in Afghanistan aims to strengthen family values and social control, serving to enhance order and security within the country
